Patent CA-2655182-C (CA)
Inventor: TUDICO GIANFRANCO
IPC: A61H1/00
Filed: 2007-06-08
Granted: 2015-03-17
Abstract: The invention concerns an apparatus (1) comprising a chassis (10) supported on the ground (S), a mobile platform (44) supporting a subject, and motorized means (30, 32, 38) for driving the platform relative to the chassis. In order to put the subject off balance while moving its lifting polygon, so as to act on the subject's body according to advanced kinematics, the driving means are capable of moving the platform off-center relative to a substantially vertical fixed axis (Z-Z) and of driving the platform in rotation about said axis when the platform is off-center, whereas the platform is provided with peripheral mobile supporting means (60, 62) on corresponding bearing means (64) secured to the chassis (10), said supporting means being capable of resting the platform on the chassis by adjustably inclining same relative to the horizontal in a plane passing through the fixed axis and a central region of the platform when the driving means move the platform off-center relative to said axis. The apparatus thus generates remarkable neuro-biomechanical actions, while having a reliable lightweight and compact structure.

Title: Thermal pin assembly
Inventor: ELLER DARREN C
IPC: E05C1/12
Filed: 2007-06-05
Granted: 2014-09-16
Abstract: A pin assembly includes a spring held in compression inside a case by a thermal fuse located at the back end of the pin. The fuse is thermally activated to collapse, which allows the back end of the pin to move forward. The spring drives the front end of the pin out of the case into latching engagement between a first object, such as a fire door, and a second object, such as a floor or a doorframe. The fuse and spring are located on opposite sides of a restrictive opening at the back end of the case. The fuse is preferably cylindrical, surrounds the back end of the pin and is provided with holes oriented perpendicular to the cylindrical axis of the fuse forming a web. The holes weaken the fuse and cause it to collapse in a controlled manner at the desired activation temperature.
